Hello everyone,
I came here to ask about a upgrade for my pc a while and everyone was very helpful.So I have returned to ask for assistance once again! I'm not very well informed in what parts are compatible with what and hardware in general.I followed Joeteck's "How to build a computer" thread and found components that fit into my budget.But I would like to know:
1.If there are any incompatibilities
2.If any of the parts are unreliable or if there are better priced parts that are,well..better.

Most of it looks good from what I can tell but I'm confused by the CPU/motherboard choice. Personally I would go for a cheaper (but still quality) board with an i5 cpu instead of an i3.

/edit

Also that seems like a fairly beefy PSU for a single gtx 760, could save a few bucks there as well.

How about a Z97X-UD3H and 4670K instead?

Okay so with those two in place of what I had ,it should work fine right? No issues? No,"Hey you're gonna have saw out *blank* in your case to fit *blank*"? I just wanna make sure,I'm very cautious when spending this much money.

Yes, motherboards and CPUs are standard sizes.

Okay,thank you very much for your help! I will get back to you when it has been assembled and is functioning.

 

[ToxicWaffle]

Thank you Munky,I have changed it.

If I may add, I would change the memory to 2x4g of either DDR3 1600 or 1866 ram with Cl9 timings. I would also not get the tall heatsink Vengeance sticks because you may have clearence issues if you ever get a aftermerket heatsink.

 

[ToxicWaffle]

Ahh okay,is there a specific one you recommend?

 

[Mandrake4565]

Where are you shopping? Basically the cheapest name brand sticks with cl 9 timings will do. I am just not a fan of the sticks with tall heatspreaders, only because they will usually not fit under an aftermarket air heatsink. If you have no intentions of ever buying an aftermarket heatsink, it's a moot point, just get ram with cl 9 timings either ddr3 1600 or 1866. For example the ones I linked.

This is an affordable AMD build that will meet your needs well. If you want to speed things up add a 240GB Crucial M500 or Samsung 840EVO ssd..

Okay I'll use the 1866 ,though I have no plans of getting an aftermarket heatsink.And I'm shopping at Newegg,it's the best place I know to get pc parts.
